[Trouble]

Chapter 3 - Return

Three figure appear in a room full of clocks, one of them carrying two small bundle on they left and right. The big figure release the middle figure that it was holding tight into, letting it free. Certainly they are Shinai, Juniel and also a young boy along with two babies.

The captured young boy glared at Juniel, and then he looked at Shinai. He knew that he cannot leave, and the masked man may not come again based on how he last act was. He doesn't know why these people are forcefully bringing him here, but he really dislike the feelings of being captured like earlier and that make him frown as he glare at the two of them.

"Valence." Shinai smiled and walk toward the young boy, or it should be a young teenager now.

"...?" The young teenager looked at her with hostility, and be pose in a prepared way.

"Well, this is your actual room, and we would like to welcome you back." Shinai still smiling despite feeling that hostility, to which she sighed. "We will not bother you as long as you stay here until your memories came back." She then looked at the two babies, "And this two little fluff, I can take care of them for awhile if you'd like me to"

"No, leave them here" The young teenager said while gritting his teeth, he know that he couldn't even fight them, so how can he disobey them.

"Alright, just wait a moment then." Shinai nodded and looked at Juniel. Juniel glanced at the teenager and then walk out. "Do you know how to take care of them? Or want me to teach you?"

"No need, I knew how" The teenager rejected her and took away the two babies away from her. He then went to the corner and leave her alone, making Shinai sigh again and simply watch over him while she waits for Juniel. Which Juniel soon return with a few light coloured furniture such as a soft sofa, a big carpet, two set of of babies bed, and a normal single bed.

He arrange those into a proper arrangement and looked at the teenagers. And with that the two of them left.

..—

After an hour or so, the babies looked at the teenager and tugged his hair, they make sound and giggled, making the teenager calmed down and smiled to them. One of the baby keep looking at the carpet and beds that Juniel has arranged, and because the baby was curious, the baby try to crawl toward them.

The teenager lifted the two babies and bring them to the carpet, and put them down. They smiled and plays around, and the time in there passed just like that. Gradually, as the teenager stayed in this clocks room, he finally understood why he was forcefully brought here, as his realize the identity that he hold.

A beautiful carved brown clock appears when he snapped his finger. He pointed at one of the clock finger and moved it in a clockwise direction. Its speed was slow and then the more it spun, the faster it gets until the clock finger are no longer visible. Then it abruptly stop.

The two babies looked at the teenager without blinking, they watched the teenager gradually grew up, getting taller and taller, hair become longer, face become thinner and sharper, shoulder widen, and when he stop growing, he has become an outstanding looking adult, just like how their previous father and mother in the two worlds.

He smiled at the two babies and kissed their cheek, "I'm sorry for forcing the two of you accompany me here." He sat cross legged and put them on his lap. The babies shook their head and hold into his shirt tightly. "Is that so? I'm relieved that the two of you are okay with this." He pats them and kissed their cheek again, "It seems like we'll be staying here for long while... what to do" He looked around and looked at them.

He wished that he can make them grow faster, but he rather not do so because the severe side effect on them will not be good. He anyway was already happy that these two could stay in here with him, and that make him smile every time he saw them, putting him in a good mood. So every day he played with them, and while watching over the clocks and screen.
